Overall- just better crepes and not being burnt I would possibly come back for the food otherwise I'll only come for...
Read moreEw, definitely nothing at all like the old Melange kiosk/food truck days. The first time I ever stepped foot in the brick-and-mortar it was a weekend and I picked up my food to go. The place was so empty that it actually became awkward for me how hard the workers worked at ignoring my presence.
Since I was a pre-paid pickup order, they literally only needed to hand me the bag, but the two girls at the front were too busy gabbing with each other about their personal lives to notice me.
When someone finally came from the back and asked me what they could make for me, I told them I was a pick-up order and all three of the workers looked confused for a solid 30 seconds until someone questioningly picked up a bag sitting in (presumably??) the pick-up order area of the counter and then read the name on the bag like they were discovering a new element.
At the time they handed the bag over, I was still tripping on the contrast between this depressing new establishment and the old days of entertainment and enthusiasm outside.
Since the food was also cold and nothing to write home about, I have to wonder how this place even shares the same name as the old cart on Westheimer. Different cooks, different food, different service -- all coasting on the same...
Read moreThis review is based solely on the efficiency of this place. I like to right good reviews when it's well deserved and bad in hopes that things change. We went here because it had good reviews. This place may be great (have yet to try my food for reasons that will soon become obvious), but not during rush hour. We came here excited to try this place and waited 1 hour for crepes. 1 hour!! For crepes! Not only do you wait for an hour, they spent 5 minutes arguing back and forth about running out of numbers to hand out. In front of customers. You run out of numbers to hand out, when all your customers have them waiting for their food. Told the person taking orders that the wait is 1 hr because you can't improve if no one tells you the truth. She did apologize, but I'm not sure if it fell on deaf ears. We were never told about the wait when we ordered. After we waited for about 45 minutes, we noticed them telling customers the wait is 40 minutes. For crepes?!?! Very disappointed and will not be coming back here. Positives: nice decor, good location, can do street parking or regular parking, polite greeter, and you get...
